"New York Special Election: Suozzi vs. Pilip for Santos' Seat"
In New York's 3rd congressional district, a special election is being held to replace embattled former Rep. George Santos, with Republicans fighting to defend their razor-thin majority in the House. Former Rep. Tom Suozzi, D-N.Y., and Nassau County legislator Mazi Pilip are vying for the seat, with Suozzi holding a slight lead in polls. The election is being closely watched as it could shift power in the lower chamber towards Democrats. The snowstorm in New York may impact voter turnout, and the results are expected after polls close at 9 p.m. Eastern Time. Santos, who was expelled from Congress, will not be voting, and the race has sparked debate over issues like abortion.
